Windows 7/2008R2 Process Reflection

Question

Have you ever used Process Reflection from code? Even in C#?

I've been reading about this topic.

I find it very interesting as it allows you to recover an application after an unhandled exception as you can clone a process as a "process backup" and run it after actual one has a fatal error.

Process Reflection (new)

• Crashed processes are cloned in memory
• Windows 7 tries to recover the cloned process and diagnoses the failure conditions of the original process
• It should reduce the disruption caused by diagnosis of failed process
